See more Apr 4, 2013 Lame slapstick. Not Charlie at his best. See more Mar 20, 2013 It was an okey Film. I would recommend it more for little kids who enjoy slap stick comedy and Looney Tunes because that's the kind of comedy this film had. I liked how the film ended. See more Mar 12, 2013 One of Chaplin's first films The Pawnshop has some funny gags but isn't anything spectacular. Chaplin's physical comedy is as good as anyone and with such an early film in the annuals of history you could tell he was still perfecting the trade. The fight sequences between Chaplin and John Rand are enough to give it a watch.

The Tramp + exotic objects = Awesometown. Well, it's not really awesometown. It's more like prettygoodtown. There are some great moments here, and the entire film is pretty damn funny, but it's not very consistent as a slight majority of the jokes grow tired pretty fast and are basically slapstick cliches. There's not much to the story as well. It's still a great enjoyable film overall, and most likely worth your time. See more Read all reviews
